Carol Bowditch, 64, has been spared jail over bestiality charges after claiming she did not realise it was illegal

The pensioner’s activities were exposed in an RAF police investigation which focused on a man identified as organising a bizarre sex party at which owners watched their dogs having sex with women, before having sex with the women themselves.

Details of the event were later shared online in an internet forum specialising in bestiality.

The investigation ultimately led cops to Bowditch.

Upon searching her home, officials found a DVD and USB stick with footage of her with the dogs on it.

When the defendant was interviewed she admitted she had penetrative sex with dogs
